With this Request for Proposals (RFP), The Carter Center and DT Institute seek to resource HRDs in a second pilot phase of programmatic grants. ACCELERATE Programmatic Grants will channel funding to HRDs implementing locally led solutions that will benefit from project-based resources to start new initiatives, scale existing work, or amplify efforts.

These programmatic grants are open to partners of The Carter Center and DT Institute who meet the eligibility criteria below. Successful projects will benefit from technical advisement from either The Carter Center, DT Institute, or both. Through this pilot small grants mechanism, The Carter Center and DT Institute seek to empower HRDs to make meaningful impacts in their local contexts.

Successful applicants will contribute to a modest Learning Agenda and participate in an emergent Community of Practice. Please note that funding is very limited in the pilot phase. The Carter Center and DT Institute cannot provide awards for all favorably evaluated applications.
